Now all sorts of undead roam the city, including zombies, ghouls, wraiths, and specters. The city’s heritage combined with the intense unholy atmosphere gives these undead unusual and deadly capabilities.The Moilian dead theme is available only to undead creatures and benefits creatures of any role.Fallen Angel of Death: Nerull’s angels carried plagues and death to the natural world. It was their task to harvest souls and bring them to their master. After the Raven Queen defeated the god and stole his power, the fallen angels of death fled to the Shadowfell’s darkest corners, and over the centuries the constant exposure to necrotic energies perverted their life force.Skeletal Warrior: Girdle of Skulls magic item.Melting FuryThis fearsome disease is quite rare since it spreads by handling undead flesh, an act few have occasion or inclination to perform. The disease, infused as it is with shadow energy, causes flesh to rot and organs to melt until only stained bones remain. The exposed skeleton soon animates and wanders about until destroyed.Not all undead flesh carries this disease, but it is common to creatures associated with Kyuss, the Worm that Walks. When a creature touches or ingests the flesh, the disease attacks the creature: disease’s level +3 vs. Fortitude. On a hit, the creature contracts melting fury (stage 1).Melting Fury Variable Level DiseaseAs the disease progresses, your flesh becomes wet and slimy. Any pressure at all causes your flesh to tear and blood and filth to spill forth.Stage 0: The target recovers from the disease.Stage 1: While affected by stage 1, the target has vulnerable 5 to all damage.Stage 2: While affected by stage 2, the target has vulnerable 10 to all damage, and when the target takes damage from an attack that lacks a damage type, each creature adjacent to the target is exposed to the disease. At the end of the encounter, an exposed creature must make a saving throw. On a failed saving throw, the target contracts melting fury (stage 1).Stage 3: The target dies as the flesh melts away into a fetid pool. After 24 hours, the remains animate to become a decrepit skeleton.Check: At the end of each extended rest, the target makes an Endurance check if it is at stage 1 or 2.Lower than Easy DC: The stage of the disease increases by 1.Easy DC: No change.Moderate DC: The stage of the disease decreases by 1.Girdle of SkullsThe skulls adorning this belt can create undead servants to protect you in battle.Girdle of Skulls Level 12 RareBy plucking a skull from the belt, you can call forth a skeleton to do your bidding.Waist Slot 17,000 gpPropertyThe girdle starts with four charges. When you take an extended rest, the item regains one charge.Utility Power 􀀩 Daily (No Action)Trigger: You reduce a creature to 0 hit points or fewer.Effect: The girdle gains a charge (maximum of four).Utility Power (Summoning) 􀀩 Encounter (Minor Action)Requirement: The girdle must have at least one charge.Effect: Expend a charge. You summon a skeletal warrior in an unoccupied space within 5 squares of you. The skeletal warrior is an ally to you but not to your allies, and it lacks actions of its own. Instead, you spend actions to command it mentally, choosing from the actions in its description. You must have line of effect to the skeletal warrior to command it. You and it share knowledge but not senses.When the skeletal warrior makes a check, you make the roll using your game statistics, not including any temporary bonuses or penalties.The skeletal warrior lasts until it drops to 0 hit points, at which point you lose a healing surge (or hit points equal to your surge value if you have no surges left). Otherwise, it lasts until you dismiss it as a minor action or until the end of the encounter.</blockquote>
